Assos is brilliant - end of. Quality comes at a price, worth every penny with their excellent repair service, if it's ever needed that is.

Love to see Rapha give that kind of customer service instead of flogging over-hyped, badly designed tat!

Eh, Rapha do that too. If you don't like their design fair enough but they do do a repair service.

Nice to see you fulfilling my prophecy though

It was bound to happen

I love my Assos FI Uno s5 bibs and so does my 4rse, but we both love Rapha's Classic Bibs even more.

Buy a pair of Rapha's Pro Team Mitts and tell me they're badly designed tat. I bought a poncy white pair in the sale, couldn't believe they how good they were so went out and bought a black pair. They are the business.

I was once a Rapha hater but now I'm a total convert.

If you don't like Assos, how about Rapha ?

Not my intention.

I was only pointing that in the slagging rates, Assos is several leagues below Rapha.
Regardless of actual performance or cost, real or perceived.

Very true. Didn't want to start the inevitable though... I'm surprised it made it to the second page!
